While I had used most of these patterns at one time or another (and many of them I had discovered on my own in struggling through design problems), it wasn't until fairly recently that I learned that they had names. I recommend being careful not to quiz interviewees on specific patterns by name, and instead focus on their ability to problem solve. For example, give them a scenario when inversion of control might be needed, and see how they reason through it.

Question 1
Why is the Single Responsibility Principle important?
